Mike is a 1992 graduate of Ball State University, earning a bachelor's degree in Plastics Manufacturing Engineering and CAD design. During college he worked as a CAD operator in the engineering department at Hartford Concrete Products where he honed his skills drafting and detailing above- and below-grade pre-cast concrete structures, molds and tooling to cast the structures, as well as electrical, HVAC and other components to outfit the structures for the burgeoning telecommunications industry. Upon graduation he decided it was time to put his degree to work in the field of plastics manufacturing, and accepted a position as a CAD designer with Fort Wayne Plastics. Mike continued in the plastics industry over the next decade working for two other manufacturing companies and holding numerous positions including engineer, quality control manager, plant manager, director of sales and director of operations. Having entered Ball State as a "wanna-be architect", and being a woodworking enthusiast and recreational remodeler, Mike was eager to pursue his dream of being a business owner and construction seemed the natural fit. In late 2003 an opportunity to become co-owner of a successful custom home builder presented itself, and in 2009 Mike became the sole owner of Mike Gepfert Homes. After 16 years in the construction industry Mike found himself missing manufacturing. He reached out to his friend and mentor Ron Ernsberger and accepted the opportunity to join 20/20 in September, 2019.
